Such an older thread. Check and replace the sensor in the drivers side bearing hub assembly

start by getting the truck scanned for codes. Chances are, there is something going on with the drivers side bearing hub, sometimes the wires come loose and get cut by the edge of the rotor. There can be others stuff too, but the bearing hub is the most common. Worn out hubs can also cause this.

Yep, usually a fail sensor in the hub. Mine used to do this long ago also

Hi nirose15,

Welcome to the forum. Sorry to hear about your concern. What model, model year, and type of engine do you have?
